The USB chipset as claimed in claim 6, further comprising: a receiving unit comprising: a level-adjustment module coupled to a fourth pin set and a fifth pin set, adjusting levels of common voltages of signals received by the fourth pin set to generate a first differential signal, and adjusting levels of common voltages of signals received by the fifth pin set to generate a second differential signal; a plurality of variable gain tuning modules adjusting the first and second differentials to generate a first processed signal and a second processed signal; and a receiving-terminal selecting module transmitting the first or second processed signal to the data processing unit according to the detection signal.
 16. The USB chipset as claimed in claim 15, wherein the data processing unit generates receiving information to the second device according to the first or second processed signal.
 17. A USB chipset comprising: a data processing unit generating a plurality of transmission information according to first information provided by a first device; a transmitting unit processing the transmission information to generate an output signal; a first pin set configured to transmit the output signal to a second device; and a second pin set configured to transmit the output signal to the second device.
 18. The USB chipset as claimed in claim 17, further comprising: a third pin set coupled to the second device; and a detection unit detecting a level of a voltage received by the third pin set to generate a detection signal, wherein the transmitting unit utilizes the first or second pin set to transmit the output signal according to the detection signal.
 19. The USB chipset as claimed in claim 18, further comprising: a fourth pin set coupled to the second device to receive a first input signal; a fifth pin set coupled to the second device to receive a second input signal; and a receiving unit processing the first or second input signal according to the detection signal to generate a processed result and providing the processed result to the data processing unit.
